Thanks for stopping by. My name is Cori, and I have a Bachelor of Arts from Hollins University, where I majored in English Literature with a concentration in creative writing. Feel free to tell me your favorite book.
My current specialty lies in assisting those who wish to begin their own indie publishing company or who are interested in turning significant profit using Amazon KDP and Audible. If you have questions regarding any step in this lucrative market, I'm available for consultation.
As an editor, I have worked with clients ranging from Food Network personalities and CEOs to grandmothers and Bob down the street. My ultimate goal is to take each story presented to me and help the author morph it into its best, most presentable version.
I have worked on copywriting campaigns, email campaigns, blogs, and even recipe development (surprise, I used to be a chef).
I've edited full-length novels in several different genres, including romance, sci-fi, and historical fiction--really the whole gamut. The nonfiction manuscripts I have worked on have ranged in topic from sales and business to memoir, devotionals, spirituality, athletics, self-help, entrepreneurship, and more. Memoir is my true passion, but I believe that all books contain a sense of the author's soul, so all books have aspects of memoir in my eyes.
Feel free to reach out to see if I may be a good fit for your project!
I look forward to working with you!
Some of the clients I have worked with:
Cori was one of the very best things to happen to my book! She came in at just the right time and offered her support and talent when I needed it the most. I admire Cori's work ethic— even when things seem impossible, she turns on her magic and makes it happen. She takes initiative but also follows guidelines and directions. I found her to be a pleasure to work with, and I am looking forward to working with her on my next project. Her wide array of skills and project management led to the success of my book. If you are looking for a sure thing, you’ve found it with Cori.

Find your dream assistant now
This is such a needed service for authors. I've used VA/PA services from other well-known freelance platforms, but they can be overwhelming and daunting. Looking for an assistant who has some knowledge of the author world (such as Bookbub Ads) is like looking for a needle in a haystack with these larger platforms.
I had been dragging my feet on hiring a more permanent VA/PA for so long because I didn't want to have to deal with looking through that proverbial haystack, but Busy Bee makes it so easy to find the assistant you need for the work you need as an author. Thank you, Brian!!
